USB-C ports have always supported different capabilities on different systems.

    If you buy thunderbolt cables, they support everything. If you look at the cost of those cables, you will see why not all USB cables support every feature. They are also limited to 1 meter without active circuitry, which will make them even more expensive.

      So I thought it couldn’t possibly be that bad! So I looked it up on Amazon. Guys, it’s way worse than that bad. $60 for a goddamn cable! It supports everything though… https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-107022-Computer-Cables/dp/B084Z65YJQ
